Top Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University Hotel Reviews

The Capital Boardwalk

10/10 Excellent

"Convient and good value stay, quiet room and comfortable bed."

The Boardwalk Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second time to Port Elizabeth and I love staying here! The main reason is that it is very close to the airport and I can make my departing flights easily. But I do love the hotel for its size, location, beach, ambiance, food, price, and nearby shopping and casino. Everything I want at a stone’s throw. Oh, and the staff is very nice and the rooms are really nice! My favorite place in Port Elizabeth, second only to Barefoot Addo Elephant Lodge."

Radisson Blu Hotel, Port Elizabeth

10/10 Excellent

"Booked for an overnight stay as somewhere to get a good night sleep between locations. Clean, comfortable, did what we needed."

The Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is broadly very good. I was staying in one of its better rooms and everything in the room was pretty good. The staff were excellent, the breakfast is good and the Ginger Restaurant was a real treat. My only criticisms are 1) that there seems to be an issue with their hot water which means it is tinted yellow and sometimes produces sediment. This is only an issue really if you want to take a bath, but given PE and South Africa do have major water supply issues, this isn't the end of the world as the shower was good. Otherwise, the WiFi wasn't strong enough to connect to my rooms smart TV, meaning I couldn't watch Netflix etc without using my phones hotspot. Again, fairly minor. I would happily stay again."

Africa Beach B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for 3 days and highly recommend this place, its location and the staff."

Singa Lodge - Lion Roars Hotels & Lodge

8/10 Good

"Very nice stay, ok spot and felt safe"

Road Lodge Gqeberha

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was a bit disappointing due to the renovations of the breakfast hall. Hopefully when that is finished it will improve."

Southern Sun The Marine

10/10 Excellent

"Well kept. Good breakfast. "

Admiralty Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this place has been carefully chosen to make your stay as happy and comfortable as possible. From Mbasa’s warm welcome to our spacious room, delicious breakfasts and beautifully styled and maintained property and gardens, we loved it here. Our kind hosts Jo and Alan were super helpful and made us feel right at home: thank you so much for a truly lovely introduction to South Africa!"
